Carrim’s legal team requested a postponement of his testimony at the Madlanga Commission after investigators uncovered evidence of two additional payments to Medicare24 that he had not disclosed.

Carrim’s legal team requested that they be given some time to go through the cash transactions documents between Carrim, controversial businessman Vusi “Cat” Matlala and Hangwani Morgan Maumela for a stand down until 12:00 to prepare the application.

Evidence leader revealed that Carrim received over R332-Million in municipal payments to his companies while withholding R2.12 million in undisclosed transfers from Tasmika Construction to Medicare24.

Evidence leaders at the Madlanga Commission of Inquiry confronted North Carrim over late-disclosed bank statements and payments involving his companies Tasmika Construction and Medicare24.

 The challenge arose during cross-examination on Tuesday, as Advocate Matthew Chaskalson pressed Carrim on why key transactions were not mentioned in his witness statement on Monday.

The core dispute centered on two large payments from Tasmika Construction into Medicare24, R1 million on June 27, 2024, and R1.12 million on October 7, 2024, totaling over R2 million beyond previously disclosed amounts.

Evidence leaders discovered these while reviewing Medicare24 bank statements on Monday evening and informed the Commission on Tuesday morning, to verify SAPS inflows and Carrim’s claimed waiver of 10% entitlements under a loan agreement.

Counsel provided Carrim’s team with four months of bank statements for Tasmika Construction and Medicare24, arguing the delay stemmed from Carrim’s late statement filing due Wednesday instead of the prior week and his failure to disclose the payments or his access to the accounts.

They noted any of these issues would have allowed earlier sharing. An electronic spreadsheet with detailed municipal payments to Carrim-linked companies was emailed the day before, but only an infographic summary on page 505 (served Friday) was to be referenced.

The infographic summarized payments from municipalities where Carrim serves as ANC treasurer totaling around R332 million to R336 million to his companies, with the full spreadsheet offered for verification only.

Counsel emphasized no line items would be used in proceedings, allowing Carrim to check totals or dispute entries independently.

Hundreds of pages brandished by Advocate Rafik Bhana were dismissed as irrelevant beyond the summary.

Mmapeu Neo Hlanga was allegedly dossed with acid by Ivyone Maja who accused her of dating her partner in October 2024.

The incident left her with injuries that need to be operated at cost of an estimated to be R300 000.

After the court found the perpetrator guilty of attempted murder on December 1, 2025, the matter was postponed to February 9, 2026, for sentencing.

The court’s decision was based on a disturbing sequence of events that revealed the premeditated nature of the crime.

The acid attack, which left Mmapeu with severe injuries and a long road to recovery, was captured on video footage.

The footage showed the accused displaying extreme anger and a refusal to accept the termination of her relationship, threatening to publish intimate images of Mmapeu, and boasting about having caused her to lose her job.

The video evidence clearly indicated premeditation and intent to harm.

The sentencing will take place atMokopane Magistrate’s Court today.

DJ WARRAS MURDER CASE RETURNS TO COURT FOR CLOSING ARGUMENTS | 14 JANUARY 2026

The post DJ WARRAS MURDER CASE RETURNS TO COURT FOR CLOSING ARGUMENTS | 14 JANUARY 2026 appeared first on MDNtv.

Real name Warrick Stock, Dj Warras was gunned down outside the Zambesi House building in Johannesburg’s CBD.

At the time of the incident, he had been contracted to enforce security at the premises.

Initially, three people were suspected to have been involved in the incident, including one individual with dreadlocks.

44-year-old Victor Majola will be appearing in Johannesburg Magistrate’sCourt today to continue with his bail application.

ActionSA Johannesburg Regional Chairperson Themba Mabunda saif that ActionSA notes the continuation of legal proceedings in the murder case of Warrick “DJ Warras” Stock, with the bail process set to resume this morning.

“The party remains unwavering in its opposition to the granting of bail, given the extreme seriousness of the crime, the broader context within which it occurred, and the unresolved concerns around accountability, the investigation, and public safety.

The brutal murder of DJ Warras cannot be treated as an ordinary criminal matter. In honesty, it was a violent and deeply disturbing act that has shaken the community and raised serious questions about the effectiveness of law enforcement interventions prior to the loss of life. In cases of this magnitude, the justice system must act with caution and resolve to ensure that decisions taken do not undermine public confidence or place further lives at risk,” he said.

Mabunda further said ActionSA is deeply concerned that, despite the scale and brutality of this murder, only one suspect has been arrested to date.

“The circumstances surrounding DJ Warras’ death display clear indicators of planning, escalation, and sustained threats. Under such conditions, it is reasonable to expect a comprehensive investigation that accounts for all potential role players and failures. The limited progress thus far raises legitimate concerns about whether the full scope of criminal responsibility is being adequately pursued,” he said.

Mabunda further said that of further concern is the fact that more than five protection order warrants were reportedly applied for prior to this murder.

“These applications constituted repeated warnings and clear indications of imminent danger. Yet, despite these red flags, decisive intervention by the South African Police Service did not materialise. This represents a serious failure in the systems meant to protect victims and prevent foreseeable violence. These omissions must be interrogated, and accountability must follow.

Granting bail under these circumstances would send a dangerous message. It would suggest that even where multiple warning signs are present and institutional failures have already had fatal consequences, the justice system is prepared to proceed as though the matter carries no exceptional risk,” he said.

Mabunda said: “This case must also be understood within the broader context of organised criminality and lawlessness, particularly in the inner city, where hijacked and unlawfully occupied buildings have become hubs for criminal syndicates, violence, drug trafficking, and extortion. These conditions persist largely due to weak enforcement and political inaction.”

ActionSA President Herman Mashaba is known to be consistently taken a firm stance against hijacked buildings and the criminal networks that operate within them.
